---------------------+------------------------------------------------------
 The current loader_generate_script function is a bit greedy in its wget
 calls.  For each state it downloads all the census data for that state.
 Most of these tables like water, census blocks, faces_al/ah aren't even
 used for geocoding.

 It should only download the tables  that fit the pattern of the tables in
 the loader_lookuptables (where load=true) since these are the only ones
 that are processed by the loader.  This will allow people to add
 additional tables for processing if they care to, but also minimize on
 unnecessary waiting for files that aren't even used to be downloaded.
